On a hard drive, you have options to set a jumper. It is a plastic piece that contact two pins on the plug side of the hard disk. This jumper specifies if the hard disk is Primary, Secondary, or Cable Select. If you select Primary, this is telling your computer to boot from this disk (Usually containing the operating system). Secondary is telling the computer that this drive is only for extra storage and cable select means your computer will determine based on the order of which it's plugged in. (Not recommended if you know what the drive is going to be used for)
